I put my actual e-mail address up everywhere. But you can't go by me.

I would be happy if each localizer had an automatically generated user
page, even with no information, and those pages had links in the table
on the Pootle page. Then I could post to their discussion page, and
they would get an e-mail without me seeing their address. I am not
clear on how we could manage the Pootle and Wiki registration process
to permit this.
